Wow?!

[plugger66]

How many time did we lose to a 3rd year team with 16 third year players and some average senior players?!

It was every bit as bad as any 80's performance.

Milera got on the end of the chain for 3 goals... Is that the measure of a good game.
He did not contribute to the fundamentals that StK would base their game plan around.... Defensive pressure acts. TWO of his efforts will be highlighted in team meeting this week, 1 of which led to Charlie Dixon kicking a goal because Terry sat off him

Yes, I love it when we lose.... You can tell by my comments post losing.

We lost our first 3 game in 1985 by 100 points or more each game. Sydney beat us by 110 points in round one and only won 6 for the year. i reckon that year may have had our top 5 bad performances in our time. And you still think a player who kicks 3 goals is in your list of one of the worst indivdual performances you have seen. Do you ever admit maybe you were over the top.

[BigMart]

We just lost to the team predicted buy most to finish last?

In 1985 we were predicted to finish last......

Terry Milera made some efforts last night which he would be disappointed about,

Terry's game last night was terrible, he kicked three goals.... None of which he created, he just got on the end of play...

I'm not sure you understand what constitutes a good game?!
Hint- it involves effort and execution....

And im not sure you answer or you just refuse to remember what you wrote. Who said Milera was good? not me. however you said he was part of a group of players who had nearly the worst performance since you followed the club. get it. Surely you remember 100 worst individual performances than a guy kicking 3 goals.

And thanks for the hint. Pity it wasnt needed because I didnt say it.

Aren't you trying to suggest booting three goals = good performance

What if someone has only three kicks, all from assists, and they all happen to be goals.... Does that mean they can't have played poorly??
What did you think of Terry's defensive game?? And his indecision on the HFF on the break, ultimately was costly...

[maverick]

Marto celebrates the good and the bad and is one of the more astute posters on this forum

Really, find me a celebratory one

cool

the same two 'discussing' stuff like usual

No I am nott trying to suggest that. Really you should change your name to Forrest Gump. i am suggesting there would have been at least 100 indiviual worst performances you have seen than Milera last night but you pick in in a list of some of the worst performaces you have seen at the club.

I will answer your question unlike you who hardly ever do. Milers was fair tonight. Easily best of our small forwards and by a fair way. Their job is to kick goals. he kicked 3. Probably the 1348th worst performance by a saints player in my time.

In our defence we are pretty much on topic, we arent abusing each other and Im pretty sure others are able to post.

How is it what I "think" Scott said?

He said it.

Justin said it.

Scott is choosing to play another specialist ruckman, and attempting to have them as that thirds rotating tall, not many sides do.

Unless its someone like Cox and Nicnat

Ben should be able to shoulder 90% on his own IMO

Saad Milera Milne and then even TDL, were in to crumb what exactly?

I reckon the suns defenders kept their feet all night, there was not the space that the smalls have enjoyed in recent years. I know why, and it needs to be addressed.

Surely you see that Kosi for Hickey decreases the overall pace and agility of a team that is not exactly blessed with pace and agility?

Surely you see pace and agility are rendered useless if there is no spills and/or space?

Kosi might be able to crash packs, but he wouldn't even be able to get to a lot of them.

And we cannot afford to have a player who is so one dimensional that his only role is to crash packs. What will he do when the opposition is running rings around him when we're running out of defence. No team can afford to have a player like that.

And in terms of crashing packs, Maister is as good and will get to more.

Now, I am not writing off Kosi's career right here and now. I think he is talented and will be able to contribute something before he retires. But that is only going to happen in two ways. Either he plays well enough at Sandy to demand a spot, or injuries require him to play. Neither has happened so far.

[BigMart]

You do excuse mediocrity though....

And don't really understand what is expected of a footballer.... If you think a small fwd job is to kick goals...

It's to create goals. Terry created 1 last night.

Late night. Lots to drink and started shot gunning them after three quarter time so yes i am still asleep.

[MC Gusto]

Please can someone mention 97 and the start we had that year..? Then we'll all feel better about the next 5 games

[thejiggingsaint]

Any of that thay-yere pop-corn /cawfee for a Jiggster?

[matrix]

yes must say
i wasnt too happy after 3 qtr time

small forwards job is to create goals BM??
i wouldve thought that that is correct but, surely the most important job is to crumb and kick goals first?


here ya go jiggy

he needs to learn. jetta went through it and so will milera.

i liked that they put him in a center square clearance to make him win his own ball and tackle. i dont think he should be dropped.

for me hickeys gets sent back to the VFL, along with blake, hyphen. others i am not sure about gilbert, ray, newnes. dal santo but you back him in one more week. newnes you just have to back in development wise.

INs we need: fisher, dempster, schneider, montagna, wright.

[matrix]

see with gilbert its just his kicking
the misses was yelling at him last night a fair bit and i said
'look i agree, but watch what he does when he doesnt kick'
he is frustrating sometimes when it comes off hte slipper but i saw him do a fair bit that contributed
saw him at least twice with quick hands and taps that resulted in two goals

i dont like gilbs down back
i didnt think putting him on GA was a great move
jonesy should just gone straight to him from the opening bounce imo
yeah he will still get prob 30 and kick a couple
but he prob wont kick 4 on jonesy (he kicked 1.3 in 2011 and didnt bother the scoreboard last year)

gilbert will stay in the side and should (never thought i would say that tbh)
for the life of me tho i have no idea where he should play

[thejiggingsaint]

Well thank you sir!!!! I'm just off now to ambush the neighbours kids and relieve them of their Easter eggs! My grandkids are waaayyyy too smart now, they don't come around!
